Tesco PLC Company Background

SectorConsumer Defensive
ActivitiesTesco is a large food retailer, operating thousands of stores in the United Kingdom, Ireland, and Central Europe. The majority of Tesco's sales are from the UK, where the firm has over 24% market share, more than double the second-largest peer, Sainsbury's, according to Euromonitor. Tesco also holds 30% e-grocery market share in the UK, holding a dominant position online. Tesco gained exposure to the cash-and-carry and out-of-home delivery industries with the GBP 4 billion acquisition of Booker in 2018.
